Hooray, our phones just took a big crap... can't dial in or out. This antique Cisco garbage must know we are moving to a hosted system soon and decided to break today.... if anyone has a brilliant idea to try, I'm willing to throw the hail mary pass at this point.
You can always go do something modern and enterprise in house for free while you wait.

@scottalanmiller not sure what you mean.

FreePBX, Elastix... just throw one onto a VM and migrate. Step up to enterprise phones on a VM instead of old, fragile hardware with no up front cost!
Hopefully the crippled Cisco phones have the SIP option.

You have to download the SIP firmware for the Cisco Phones.

It would take longer to find such hardware to host a VM than it will take to get new phones. Plus I know jack shit about linux, so the learning curve to get something like that off the ground for production is simply to steep. As an open ended, no pressure learning project, sure probably a good plan, but the bosses are gonna want this fixed today. Telling them "I'm googling a how to for setting up (stuff mentioned above) will go over like a lead balloon filled with shit.
I can't wait to get this goddamned nonsense out of here.... it only needed to work another week or so.

You gotta keep the replacement talk on the DL man, then when you're ready sneak up behind the old junk and get your revenge.

Hang in there man. We all run into this kind of non-sense. Everything always happens when it's least convenient.

@MattSpeller well the AT&T guy already installed some equipment, so the old PBX saw him.

And then figure out what update order the firmware has to go in. At least the one I tried, you couldn't just update from version 7.2 or whatever to the newest version. You had to go from 7.2 to 7.5, then to 7.6, then to 7.10, then to 7.12. It was ridiculous.
The numbers could be completely wrong. I tried to forget all of it.

Trying to book some flights, as always, having issues.

Comcast accused one of my sites of downloading illegal software. I tried to resolve it via security assurance only be told im not on the account. I asked why im not on the account as I should have been added (and I requested) over two years ago. I was e-mailed back saying I am on the account. Call comcast back. "You're not on the account".
Wheel of morality turn turn turn. Tell us the lesson that we should learn.

This isn't an issue for you, then. It's an issue for your attorney. Let them handle it and only them handle it.

Finally got our flights booked. We can leave the Schengen now!
